regulator. The input voltage range is from 4.7V to 16V with
common input source, or 2.375V to 16V with an external bias
supply. The output voltage range is 0.8V to 1.8V for Channel 1
and Channel 2, 0.8V to 5.5V for Channel 3. Derating is
necessary for certain V

allowing the user to program output tracking or soft-start
period. The board operates in continuous conduction mode
in heavy load conditions. For high efficiency at low load

and 2 can be connected in parallel for a single 20A output
solution with optional jumper resistors. The LTM4633 data
